Looking forward to an exciting and proactive year with you all! Sincerely yours, Friederike Sommer What is Missing From Your Resume? By Linn Hjortsberg, Project Manager, Archimed Medical Communication and Co-director Women in Science Times are rocky. The industry is struggling. It is not a great time to be looking for jobs. According to www.salary.com 65% of the workforce is passively or actively looking for jobs. The number of actively looking individuals increased by 17% during the last year. Bonnie Lappin CPC, President, The Lappin Company, has provided in-depth, customized resume consultations to over 4,000 of professionals for over twenty years. One rainy evening in October, she joined the Women in Science (WIS) group at Restaurant Safran-Zunft in Basel to give her insight on how to advance one’s career by discovering hidden skills, strengths and talents. In this very interactive session Bonnie discussed what Hiring Managers are typically searching for in a candidate and what Human Resources are screening for when they receive resumes. 3 The EuroVoice March 2010 What is Missing From Your Resume? - cont’d - So how do you stay attractive for employers when the positions are few and competition is tougher than ever? How do you get noticed when recruiters spend an average of 90 seconds scanning your CV? According to Bonnie, individuals working in Life Sciences dedicate years to attaining academic degrees that give them the necessary credentials to pursue their chosen professions. More years are invested in gaining job experience, but typically no time is spent learning how to best present their experience and credentials in the one document they will continually use to advance their career—their resume. So how do you improve the chances your resume will not get lost in the pile? What is the primary purpose of a resume? To get you an interview! Look for key points from the job description in order to understand what the employer is looking for. Identify the key points that match your experience and customize you resume to highlight the sought for skills. Many people make the mistake of thinking one need only one resume, said Lappin, however, it is not only perfectly fine but necessary to work with multiple customized CVs. Matching key points get you to the interview, once there you have the chance to give the full picture. HBA NEWS FROM PARIS The French membership of HBA Europe has grown significantly over the last months and, as a result, has set up a local organising committee based in Paris. Committee members include Chantal Legrand from Pfizer (Event Locations), Pascale Auge from Ernst & Young (Event Content), Catherine Heron from Chandler Chicco (Local Media Relations) and Gabriele Silvagni from Grey Healthcare Group (Committee Chair). The Committee has already appointed ambassadors in many Paris-based companies to spread the HBA message and increase its visibility within the organizations. The group met earlier this year to work on the events calendar for 2010 and is confident that HBA members will appreciate what it is in store for them. Here are some of the topics in our program of events: Health 2.0 (April 14th); Market Access (May 20th), Leadership (June 24th), Personal Branding (September), Mentoring (October 14th) and Negotiation (November). HBA Europe is looking forward to an exciting year full of opportunity and growth in Paris!

  • 71 BEREC Annual Reports 2014 2015-05-25
    BoR (15) 71 BEREC Annual Reports – 2014 – 4 June 2015 BoR (15) 71 Foreword by the BEREC Chair 2014 As BEREC Chair 2014, it is my honour to present the annual report on BEREC activities for the year 2014. This report is based on the 2014 work programme and describes the achievements of BEREC last year. Last year was once again a challenging and highly successful year for BEREC. Through the delivery of timely and high-quality opinions, driven by our expertise and practical experience, we have given expert advice to the European institutions on important legislative initiatives such as the Telecoms Single Market (TSM)1 initiative, and provided an expert opinion on the Commission Recommendation on Relevant Markets. BEREC has again shown that it is an important, neutral and objective expert advisor to legislators and has played an important role in these processes. In addition to this, BEREC has updated its Strategic Outlook, reorganised its working structure and increased engagement in stakeholder dialogue by organising a stakeholder forum, among other activities. Before proceeding to describe the activities of 2014 in the next chapters I would like to begin by pointing out some highlights from the year. Progress towards BEREC’s objectives BEREC delivered a wealth of results and moved towards achieving its objectives in three thematic areas related to promoting competition and investment, promoting the internal market, and empowering and protecting end users. These outputs include: • BEREC Opinion on the Commission Recommendation on Relevant Product and Service Markets Susceptible to ex ante Regulation; • BEREC views on the legislative initiative on the Telecoms Single Market (TSM), including a separate analysis of the impact of ‘Roam Like at Home’; • BEREC Common Position on geographic aspects of markets analysis; • BEREC report on monitoring quality of service in the context of net neutrality; • BEREC Guidance on the regulatory accounting approach to the economic replicability test.

  • CONAM March 2007F2
    EU 6 th Framework Programme Project # LSSB-CT-2004-504776 THE IMPACT OF REACH The report of the CONAM / ecopa Chemical Policy Working Group March 2007 “Copyright 2007 by ecopa (the European Consensus Platform for 3R -alternatives), resp. covered under the regulations of the EU 6 th Framework Programme-Reprint and reference consent to be obtained by the editors”. Edition ecopa : Report 1, Brussels 2007. Participants/Contributors : Tonia Devolder , BE Vera Rogiers, BE Bernward Garthoff, DE Horst Spielmann,DE Karsten Müller, DE Simon Webb, UK Marleen Pauwels, BE Executive Summary About ecopa and CONAM ecopa is the European Consensus Platform on 3R-Alternatives. It is an international not-for- profit organisation, officially established in April 2004 according to Belgian law. ecopa is the only quadripartite umbrella organisation at the European level concerned with the development and implementation of 3R-alternative methods to animal experimentation. The parties involved are Academia, Industry, Animal Welfare and Governmental Institutes. ecopa is a success thanks to the creation of so-called National Consensus Platforms (NCPs) in the different European Member States. Actually, 13 full member NCPs (Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Italy, The Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom) and 3 associate members (NCPs under formation) exist (Ireland, Norway, and Poland). Recently, Norway and France officially finalised their consensus platform preparations. As ecopa believes in international networking, exchange of information and good science as a solid basis for alternatives development, the CONAM (Consensus Networking on Alternative Methods within Europe)-project was initiated under FP6 (Project nr. LSSB-CT- 2004-504776), coordinated by ecopa 's chair Prof.
